Wiktionary:About Chinese/Mandarin/Xi'an

Xi'anese (西安話西安话 (Xǐ'ngǎnhuā)) is the representative variety of Guanzhong Mandarin (關中話关中话 (Guǎnbvěnghuā)). Xi'an has served as the capital of many historical Chinese dynasties, including the Han and the Tang. Guanzhong Mandarin varieties tend to be, in general, quite similar, though some features, such as the -o rimes and tone sandhi, may vary from place to place. A more conservative variety of Xi'anese is adopted on Wiktionary.
